I do hope the recital went well, Lizzie, and I hope your post may have boosted the audience a bit. If I lived nearer I would definitely have gone. Please don't interpret the lack of replies as lack of interest...it's just that if it's not broadcast for all to hear, it's difficult to comment. Any Wichester broadcasts coming up any time soon?

[mangerton]

Indeed. I would second ardcarp's remarks. On a related topic..

Thomas Trotter is giving a recital in Dundee's Caird Hall on Sat 21st. I'll be there!

Thank you both! It was a superb concert and I heard colours from that organ I'd missed before. CE being recorded during Southern Cathedrals Festival in July (see Winch website) for later broadcast. Got day off to go! Thomas Trotter is someone I'd travel miles to hear but Scotland is a tad too far! Been to Dundee though. Bws Liz
